3. 3 sq. m plywood about 9 mm thick.
4. 6 running meters of a planed board 20x95 mm.
5. 4.5 linear meters of bars 28x45 mm.
6. 2 linear meters of slats 20x38 mm and the same number of slats 20x20 mm.
7. 2 linear meters of the bar 45x45 mm.
8. 16 sets of furniture ties.
9. 8 furniture castors with a height of 35 mm.
10. Joiner's glue.
11. Special varnish for furniture.

13. Milling machine.
14. The drill.
15. Electrosawing (in extreme cases, you can do with a conventional hacksaw).

Operating procedure:
First of all, it is worth noting that this operating procedure is designed for models with a size of 2060x1692 mm. But, of course, you need to build on the area of a particular room. Begin by making a V-shaped cut on the four main bearing plates.
A plinth is cut out from boards with a thickness of 20 mm. It is screwed onto the side walls of the frame from the inside. It is important at the same time to pre-coat the walls of the drilled holes with carpentry glue. In exactly the same way, it is necessary to fix short vertical racks from the inside of the case. They will take on the load of the longitudinal bars that hold the bed.
Now you need to screw the bars 28x45 mm from the inside on three sides of the case. They will be a support under the rack base of the bed. As a measure, the end of the central beam should be used.
Furniture elements are interconnected using furniture ties, which ensures collapsible design. You can attach the screed to the side walls of the frame or to the supporting bars.
The stiffness and reliability of the bed as a whole can provide corners and screeds. For this, a 20x38 mm block is taken and screwed to the central transverse jumper. This whole structure is attached to the side wall of the frame. The longitudinal central beam joins the corners at the corners.
Now the side wall is screwed to the headboard.To do this, use side ties located on each side. It should be remembered that the upper longitudinal bar 45x45 mm, which serves as a support, is attached to the wall with one screed, and the bar with a parameter of 20x38 mm - on the screw.
A 20x20 mm rail is glued to the central beam from above, which will divide the surface of the beam into two equal parts. It is these parts that will act as the basis on both sides for the battens. The beam itself is connected with screeds to the back.
The sides of the drawers are made of 19 mm thick boards or a joinery. Assembled with screws. It is recommended to add a small amount of glue to the nests for a good connection. It is necessary to remember the need to install furniture castors, so the top of the rear walls of the drawers is slightly mowed. The rollers are held directly under the lower bar, the back of the module rises. Thanks to this bar, the box will not roll out from under the bed at all.
9 mm thick plywood cuts out the bottom of the drawers. They should be fixed on the screws to the ends of the walls.
Now you can screw the furniture rollers to each drawer. This will allow you to conveniently and quickly pull out the drawer, despite the mass of things in it.
The front panel is attracted to the front wall of the drawer with clamps and screwed on the inside with 8 screws. A similar procedure is repeated with each element.

It should be remembered that the width of all front elements should be approximately 6 mm wider than the width of the side walls of the frame. This adds aesthetics thanks to the protruding back. Now the final part remains - grinding all the elements and coating them with a matte varnish.
Such a bed is both a cozy berth and a very comfortable wardrobe. Such a thing will definitely be worth the time and money spent on it.
